Fishing for the Moon
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and whimsical illustration from the "Little Mouse Family" series, published by Humphrey Milford in 1924. Created by the talented artist Lilian Amy Govey, this postcard invites us to join a delightful anthropomorphic mouse family on a moonlit fishing adventure. The scene unfolds in a serene and enchanting woodland setting, where the moon casts a gentle glow over the water. The father mouse, dressed in a striped shirt and trousers, is intently focused on his fishing rod, his eyes fixed on the surface of the water. His wife, clad in a floral dress and apron, sits beside him, her hand shielding her eyes from the moonlight as she watches her husband with a loving smile. Their young children, dressed in nightgowns and clutching their teddy bears, gaze up at the moon in wonder, their tiny fishing rods resting beside them. The intricate details of the illustration transport us to a time when life was simpler, and the wonders of nature were enough to captivate the imagination of young and old alike. The gentle colors and soft lines of the artwork evoke a sense of tranquility and nostalgia, making it a timeless treasure for any collection. Lilian Amy Govey's "Fishing for the Moon" is not only a beautiful work of art but also a testament to the enduring appeal of the simple joys of family life and the natural world. This postcard is a reminder that even the most ordinary moments can be transformed into magical experiences when viewed through the lens of imagination and love.
